In this work, we investigate the energy levels and optimization of intrinsic parameters (such as number and width of wells, potential barrier width, refractive index, etc.) and extrinsic parameters (including temperature and pressure) in a laser diode based on the GaInP/AlGaInP structure. The computational techniques employed include the pseudo-empirical potential method to determine the electronic band structures and a graphical method for optimization. Our results are consistent with experimental and theoretical results.
